Our hotel was on Champs-Elysees which is a very touristy area. So, the day we ventured into the Marais district we were pleasantly happy! This seemed to be more of a local atmosphere although filled with many boutiques. This area had the best shopping in Paris...and the reason I say best is because the boutiques had some really cute clothes... More

What to say about Marais? Perfect for walking, taking small shopping-trips or just a little drink. Place des Vosges is a beauty, the handsome - and gay, Louis XIII is still sitting on his horse. Take some hours in Musée Carnavalet - free entrance, walk the narrow streets - when the pavement shines like silver. Le Marais is crowdy on... More

My absolute favorite when it comes to Paris. Our guide was a local from here so she explained us the real parisian vibe through the streets of the magnificent gay jewish quarter.

The Marais area in Paris in the 3rd. & 4th. arrondissement. A 5 minute walk from St Paul metro station. Predominently a Jewish area, but fast becoming a gay centre. Very historic narrow streets full of cafes and restaurants,both kosher and non kosher, catering for all palates. Niches shops which weren't too expensive for a tourist haven. Very busy on... More

Wonderful to walk around and experience the shops and cafe's. Nice to experience the parisian streets without crowds. Rue pieton is great to experience.. Grab lunch or a coffee at a cafe and relax.
